When you're in CORONAtine and running out of ideas what to do today: COWABACHATA!! 🤠 . Thank you @atacaylaalemanaofficial for the fun footwork! Still learning to be swifter on my feet, but 'least I move em! 💃🏼 . There is my second "too bad not to post" take if you swipe, yeehawhawhaw!! . I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who stays at home even though things are getting tougher mentally and physically. Countless of time for the past 3 weeks I personally have been at the edge of trench of anxiety & depression. Occupying yourself with stuff like this does help day by day. We got this, the world is a better place because of YOU! .

First is for officializing this long overdue GRADuation celebration from filmsCOOL in style & zero debt 💸 . Second is to pose with my rolled-up diploma (it's fake), Douglas Fairbank style. . Third is to join the ape-strong SCA alumni and swag posé like I don't care coming to school and being reprimanded as student for doing this lel. . Thank you @usccinema for making this little Indonesian girl's dream of becoming a filmmaker come true. I will never forget the lessons, the friendships, and the love of art I've received while I was under your wing. Now I need to make the rest of the journey to be a proud Trojan Cinema alumn. Fight on, and let's keep the Reality Ends Here. . And to end this chapter, lo and behold, the Master of Fine Arts of fineness and... arts. Plural! 😎 #finally #MFA #filmachoollivin #realityendshere #nowwhat? . . . . Ps: fourth is a kyut boomerang vid by @azon04 of how happy I was not to deal with class and paying tuition no more. Real world, gimme fame and food! (at USC School of Cinematic Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6nJln2Bx0Z/?igshid=tfdv9tyha8fs

“All I’ve got are these photographs.” September 2019 I’m trying to catch a ghost, and I know it usually ends somewhere… on a dead end. A sematary. Wendigo won’t dig-o the fact I’m trying to revive bad habit from the dead. You cannot revive something that’s already dead, otherwise it’ll turn into something ugly. I’m distracted as hell, and distraction is not good. Not good is bad, and Imma bad, bad girl. Skin on skin, rubbin that thighs. Chikin wing is my favorite side. I can’t have junk food of heart cus I’m on fucking diet for chrissake. No men wanna be my friends. And when I said men I meant “humen” cause I’m from the 18th century. They just wanna pat the pussycat cus that’s what “friends” are for. Don’t Cha Wish Your Girlfriend Was Raw Like Me. Except that I’m not available. Emotionally unavailable, but bodily thirsty for love. God damn it. I’m done and I’ll come back to my reality next week. I’ll bury myself with myself, self worth and self true love and by next week, will be an oblivious woman with no desire to spare. https://www.instagram.com/p/B2vw0q9BWOzk3OtIRUhfmnME2CSDFqEFO2x0Y00/?igshid=1f56ewzi1iu4h

When the clock stroke at midnight, the peasant girl turned into a beauty queen and rules the world with her ideologies and dreams. She only has until dawn to deal her shit out before she returns as a servant to her cruel stepmother named Life and evil stepsister called Adulthood. Will she make it?

"It could all be so simple But you'd rather make it hard Tell me, who I have to be to get some reciprocity? No one loves me more than myself, and no one ever will" Yes, fortunately no one can love you better than yourself. But it's hard. It is easier to have someone else love yourself for you. I get it. #exfactor #poetry #doyoubelieveme https://www.instagram.com/p/B2AgEqOBVygw91xrv5Fj3qJogTnBJmrLZO5xaA0/?igshid=dm3n3bk2cizu

"So many stars in the sky Sometimes I wonder why . A star she was Bright as the light itself . But the cracks became visible on her face Then as pain was swallowed the into her blood stream The pain never ended . She landed on earth and sadness left it’s cracks inside her throat and from there it spreads . Chase it let the darkness of the moon swiftly came to replace it Learned how to mend it . But the broken angel went on and divulged a source of light But not the kind that shed itself on objects . Not the kind that made you see things It was the kind of light that you felt and allowed you to see inside . It was the light of Love and it melted hate and confusion . This new light was to be the world’s cause of evolution" . .

Hi everyone !

I know this isn’t painting but its related so it has its place on the blog. 

Since couple of weeks/months I received many messages asking me for a list of films with good cinematography so they can learn a lot in terms of lighting, color or even composition. 

I decided to do it with roughly 50 films so its available for everyone.

Hope it will help some of you to understand more lighting and colors :)

Have a beautiful day !

Florian.

What a life.

The most successful pirate in history was a Chinese prostitute. Cheng I Sao had an unbeatable fleet with 80,000 sailors, which was bigger than most countries’ navies, and the government eventually had to give up and offer her a truce. She retired with her loot, opened a gambling house, and later died, peacefully, a 69-year-old grandmother. Source Source 2 Source 3

Vivian from Paper Mario 2004 is a transgender woman. It is openly stated in the Japanese version that she ‘appears to be a girl but is really a boy’ seeking acceptance from her sisters, who finally see her as female in the end. The entire story was censored in America. Source
